coilovers and breaks are all on, adjusted the right hight a little.. as low as i can practically go whilst my manifold is not on the floor constantly :) its so low that i hit cats eyes (reflectors in the middle of the road) so much so that i have bent my gear linkage and now rests on my exhaust :D.... thinking about going 14's but cant find a nice set in 7's so might have to be 15's... but still unsure how they will look :?

here are some pics, sorry they were rushed and the car was filthy!
